Forget about school blues! Let me talk about my Sentosa trip with Reub last Thursday =D

We just decided to go somewhere and have fun before school starts and since that kuku has never really gotten around Sentosa, we took the adult package and toured there for the day. Each package allowed us to pick up to 4 attractions so we chose the Carlsberg Sky Tower, Images of Singapore (don't ask me why we picked this!), The Merlion and The Luge & Skyride. So we started our journey around late morning, walking around the sky roof of Vivocity searching for the ticket counter and the Sentosa Express Station.

My smile was a bit fake in this picture cuz I had my tooth plucked out the day before and I couldn't really smile that naturally yet haha.

After much exploration, we finally found them! We quickly bought our tix and headed to the train station.

Not forgetting some cam-whoring while waiting for the skytrain.

Here it came!

It's only a 5-minute ride to the Imbiah station. This was what greeted us when we got down from the train station! Can you spot me?

We decided to go to Images of Singapore first. We took some pictures along the way hehe.

The Images of Singapore tour!

Raffles & Co. signing some treaty.

It was actually quite dark and I found this lamp in a tent so I decided to act emo.

Reub with some wax figure. Yah I felt I was in some wax museum the whole time in there.

"What's that on your cheek, Sir?"

The last thing we would be looking out for.

Sorry Reub, no photoshop so I can't brighten the picture for you!

Stop poking them, my dear.

Going up a dark stairway...

...to find this guy waiting to scare us. He was quite still though haha.

Yay I can cook! I'm just holding the thing in an awkward manner.

Pity Reub isn't a good photographer so you guys probably can't make any sense of this picture. I was actually trying to lift a trishaw haha.

Yeah I was trying to lift this person.

"Come come, let me help you write a letter back to your family."

If Reub can cook, so can YOU!

There's actually some puppet show going on behind the screen but the flash probably blinded the shadows so you can't see anything now.

Tarzan in the jungle!

Come and save the petrified but pretty Jane.

Vintage.

Yeah RIGHT, Singapore is your family Reuben.

Vintage powders.

Stepping on the charcoal during Thaipusam!

Chinese New Year's coming!!!

"Hee hee, stop it now uncle I know my life will be very good."

"So, you're trying to predict my life? Let me tell you yours instead. You're going to be a fortune teller this whole life!"

I know you're great in chess-playing, but don't have to show off even in Sentosa right?

The big jeep outside Images of Singapore.

After taking so many photos (we didn't learn much about Singapore), we were rather tired so we decided to take the Carlsberg Sky Tower.

At the entrance.

Sorry lah, no photoshop so Reub kind of looked black here hahaha.

Then we headed off to the luge and skyride! Whee~ The luge was surprisingly fast while going downhill and Reub disappeared right before me 1 minute later haha. That fast bugger. After that we took the skyride down to the starting point again :)

We then went to our last attraction of the day- The Merlion. The view wasn't spectacular; it wasn't even close to nice cuz there was a lot of construction going on.

The glow-in-the-dark waiting area.

At the mouth of the Merlion. The wind was damn strong!

At the top of the Merlion (I didn't mean to point that cute little finger).

It was rather bright up there so Reub was squinting his eyes haha so cuuuute x)

And I shall end off my entry happily! Looking forward to school tomorrow!
